Windows 10: Is it possible for two computers on the same network to interfere with each other so that...

Here are the details. About a year ago, I had to borrow, with her permission, my wife's computer so I could take a college exam online. Mine was not working properly. I have not used her computer since then. Both computers have different passwords. Now, Some of my applications and papers are showing up on her desktop while some of her are disappearing from her toolbar. Obviously, this causes some disconten. we are both on the same Wi-Fi network. What is going on here?

Now on a new window you will need to click on “Browse my computer for driver software”.




Step 6:

Then select “Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer”.



Step 7:

Now choose the “Manufacturer’s drivers” from the list of two and then click next.



Step 8:

After the completion of the process just restart your PC and check if the problem is solved or not. If not, goto solution 2.

Open command prompt.
Step 2:

Just go on hitting the enter after typing the each command.

netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disable
netsh int tcp set global rss=enabled
Step 3:

Now to check if the settings are disabled type:
netsh int tcp show global

Now the thing left is just rebooting your system and just check if the problem is solved or not and just give feedback.*chuckle*Thumbs

 

recognize ethernet ports for computer to computer network

I worked all this out for a Win7-WinXP direct ethernet computer-to-computer network and later amended it for a Win7-Win7 network.

You can use a crossover cable but do not have to.
Doing this in Windows 10 is just about the same as doing it in Windows 7 but some diagrams look different & you have to look around for the equivalent settings in some cases.

But I suggest you do yourself a favour and get a router so that it does all the hard work for you.


Best of luck,
